What a night! After sailing all day I was wishing for a nice easy first night… Not to be - the wind became quite light and a huge electrical storm was coming up on my stern. I started the engine to try and out run it - not to be - it lasted until day break. Not much in the way of wind and a very light smattering of rain - but the lighting was quite spectacular.

I also had to repair the clew on the main sail as the webbing was rotten. It took nearly three hours and several broken needles - and I still have two more pieces to replace… I shall attempt the others later as it is I'm sailing again - albeit at a rather slow pace…
